- Geez, you must be pretty lame-brained not to think that an Amiga emulator
- (at any speed) is cool.

- Remember the first C64 and PC emulators for the Amiga? They were pretty
- ridiculous too. Guess what, computers get faster. Nobody cares how
- "inefficient" it is to require a Pentium to emulate a C64 or 2600 or
- whatever. Nobody will care about how "inefficient" it is to emulate an
- A500 on an Intel P10-1000Mhz running 5 years from now.
-
- Besides, once the Amiga emulators get sound, you can use them to play
- music. :-)
